Topics to be explored:

-  The “Karma Server”,  intended for rating mailing lists posts (and/ 
or  other content), with the  goal to share the ratings with friends,  
within  one or more communities, and to enable search within posts.  
Mailing lists are used for a very long time in this way in many   
different setups, from technical standardisation bodies (IETF, W3C),  
Internet governace (Regional Internet Registries, ICANN), technical   
communities (NOGs, e.g. NANOG, UKNOF, DENOG...), to community  
projects  such as hackerspaces. Enabling  tagging of  mailing lists  
posts would introduce an improvement in the  direction of more modern  
social media, such as web-forums (i.e.  Slashdot, Reddit) or  other  
platforms where users can rate the content  (i.e. Amazon, Facebook   
discussion groups). Vesna (TechInc) is with us to extend on this topichttp://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php/Karma_server
-  Extend focus on real-time, non-textual, encrypted communications:  
get  to see what's cooking with the future of telephony and  video- 
conferencing using the ZRTP protocol. Will be present Spideralex  and  
Eleanor Saitta to envision further interoperability and explore the  
next level of social networking freedom.
